Setting the Default IP Address

To reset the CPU LAN ports to their default IP addresses, press and hold the ENG and FULL RESET buttons on the CPU front card until the card resets.

Note: Do not release the ENG and FULL RESET buttons until the CPU card LED panel shows either an A or a B.

The LAN1 Ethernet port is reset to the factory default address of 169.254.0.100 and the second Ethernet port to the 0.0.0.0 (blank) address.

The LAN1 reverts to a link local address of 169.254.0.100 only after trying and failing to acquire an IP address from the network at startup.

The LAN1 defaults to the DHCP mode of operation. This mode of operation is not to be used once the matrix is operational as it delays the start-up of the matrix following any reset.
